It’s not that easy to get. And when you see, the choice is very limited. It also cost about £120 for a simple traditional men’s wear

Many Middle East countries do not tax their citizens and yet they offer high levels of standard of living to their citizens and fantastic infrastructure. What’s the wealth from our resources being wasted on?

Sleep apnea or abnea, something like dat, that one. It not cool

It’s very serious and prevalent in Nigeria without diagnosis. Leading cause of death and tiredness during the day with many people dozing off. Here, many adults use CPAP at night to address it.

Watched him perform as the headline star in a country music concert in the O2 and he was fantastic. The mainly white crowd were going wild and crazy for him, especially when he sang the “A bar song”.

I nearly had the opportunity of meeting him backstage when I was with another group that performed but it didn’t happen.

Until we blacks get our acts together and develop, we will continue to be looked at as primitive.

That’s why YouTuber @EmanRTM asks random people in the Uk basic addition and multiplication questions and they can’t answer

The judge saying that she was not a Nigerian citizen when she graduated at 22 or returned to Nigeria after 30 years cannot be correct. She is automatically Nigerian by descent based on her parents. Did she ever have to apply for Nigerian citizenship? Applying for passport is not same as applying for citizenship. Only citizens can apply for a passport. Does it also mean that she used British passport to enter Nigeria after age 30, in which case she would have required a Nigerian visa?

Nlanalyst:
Looks to me like you and your siblings are the secret family.
Not like I believe your poorly scripted tale though.

I am lost for words to describe how you think. Its people like that condone such nonsense behaviour that some of our people, both male and female exhibit in western countries.

belikewater:
Ancestor like me...i sight you

I join una. We still dey oh!

Angelfrost:
Same item is ridiculously cheap abroad...!

A minimum wage earner in North America can eat a can of this everyday without stressing about the cost.

Very correct. One hour minimum wage salary in the U.K. can buy up to 18 cans of sardines.

Holluwhakemmy:
It's not healthy for body system so avoid it totally

That’s not correct. It’s a powerhouse of nutrients and one of the best fishes you can eat. A simple and easy way to get in necessary nutrients. I eat it regularly. Sardines are very affordable here in the U.K and come from Portugal.

AMI3:
This thing that we used to carry it to boarding school back then.
Our parent will give us Titus
Cabin biscuits ( back then I bet u u can not eat four pieces of cabin biscuits at a go)
Now u can eat 10 cabin biscuits.
Peak powder milk must follow
Cornflakes
Out school box was made of zinc pan.
We go to school with pride.

When people say they don’t like it, just know that they didn’t go to boarding school. How could we have survived without Geisha and Sardine in those days?

LordReed:
Thank you. Corrected it.

You’re a decent person.

Please, if you are coming on here to correct people, then get your facts right.

It’s pronounced GREN Itch and not Green ITCH. The emphasis is also on the first syllable GREN.

immortalcrown:
I guess they do more giving than asking for tithes.

That is correct. I go to an Anglican Church and they never ask for tithe. If you want to pay tithe or offering or any donations, you tap at a machine to pay. All offerings for the day go to specific charities chosen each month from those that the church supports, some of which are in Kenya, India, etc. if you want to give the church anything. You can also pay tithes and offerings via an app.

He paid for a $22 toy and got this

What happens to diasporans who have bank accounts in Nigeria and are not tax resident?

Kobicove:
Did this really happen or is this a joke, how come is it that it did not make the news all this while?

I wholeheartedly believe him. While I was not robbed, I was massively cheated in same place in 2019. I arrived there at about same time just after midnight with BA flight. I had not planned transport as I am used to either taking airport taxi or train in cities I visit. I headed to the taxi stand and got on a taxi which in most countries is the safest. On our way to the hotel in the city centre, the taxi drive was chatting with me. I noticed that the taxi meter fare was increasing at an alarming rate. When we arrived the hotel which was just about 16 km , the fare I eventually paid overall in euros was 95 and I have never been charged such high amount even in more advanced countries. I was dumbfounded and wanted to protest but kept my cool. When I went into the hotel and asked the receptionist how much I should have been charged, he told me it was extremely high. That just ruined my trip. The return trip was about 16 to the airport when I was leaving. I vowed never to visit that country again.i later found out that they are big cheats there. Now I thank God that I was not even robbed!

See my post at that time

Proof of reform or proof of a dying economy?

Proof of reform or proof of a suffering people? These monies are not for investment but rather monies sent to loved ones from the diaspora. That means the cost of living has increased and begging has increased.


I really condemn in the strongest of terms how this government calls it's bad economic decisions reforms.

You hit the nail on the head. The real indication of growth is that this money should be reducing. How on earth do they think or analyse data?

That her friend that sent the message was likely Japaing. Your wife did not even remember as she was shocked about your confrontation and doesn’t even care about the marriage anymore as she isn’t gaining anything being in it. She has lost her womb, she has been depressed but wasn’t really being comforted. She may have her flaws but she is going through a lot and needs support. If she isn’t the outgoing type, she probably never even had an affair even if she may have fantasised about it hence the video her friend sent. She just needs some love.

I never understand why pupils or students pay development fee when they don't own the school? You are paying to develop another man's property and it is mandatory!

This is the most senseless proposal ever made. As if we do not have a choice of where or how we spend our money The money sent back home for support and projects is not enough in addition to those spent when we visit, you want to tax us and put the money in your pockets.

What a silly idea from a diasporan. Imagine if this were to go through and someone is coming home with family, how much in total will they pay?

If this were to be accepted even if the amount were reduced, it would mean less money to families for support, yet some on here are supporting it.

Rotji:
It appears this Governor went to Missionary school and he sings very well.

The Emir of Bauchi also sings Church and Zumunta songs whenever Christian groups pay him a courtesy visit.

I personally use to recite some Islamic prayers back in the days.

Tolerance is the keyword here

The guy went to FGC Jos, so he is mostly detribalised and religiously tolerant. His classmates would have been from all over Nigeria and they would have bonded well.

Chicken change....

Chicken change is Nigerian English. No use am in the abroad oh!

The yardstick of development in states in Flyover! That is such a disgrace. I know flyovers decongest junctions but that is not all that is needed to improve the lives of people. Like she said, they should build factories that will give people jobs. The Building of the factories like the flyovers create temporary jobs but factories create more permanent jobs and touch many lives for a long time. Are our politicians not tired of seeing poverty all around them?

From Liechtenstein, you don't need to use car or bus to get to Zurich Airport. Take a bus to Sargans on the Swiss border and get a direct train to Zurich Station and then to Zurich Airport. I have done it before.

PressMyButton:
How many blacks are in the conservative MP?

You are very correct! People just think that she can go pick black from anywhere. She has to pick from MPs and most black MPs are labour not conservative

Promismike:
Pls remove petroleum engineering and law from there.

Others are true except those two. They are just like any other course in Nigeria that you need to have one oga at the top to succeed as one.

I bet you know nothing about Petroleum Engineering, if not, you won’t be saying this.

ttobizz:
How did you know, are you currently in the UK? Okay when I get to the UK, I'll confirm. If this information is true, me and you go come back 9ja

It is correct. There’s a straightforward calculation for this.
